Etymology: Origin uncertain. Perhaps shortened < either bumbler n.1 or bummill baty n. (compare -y suffix6 and see note at definition).
Scottish. derogatory. Obsolete.
Probably either: a blundering or incompetent person; = bumbler n.1; (or) a lazy, feckless person; = bummill baty n.Both bumbler and bummill baty are attested in similar contexts in the same source as bumbie: see quot. a1585 at bumbler n.1 and quot. a1585 at bummill baty n.The reading of the passage in which bumbie is found is notably different in print editions published some years after Montgomerie's death: see bumble n.2 1a.
